About the Introduction to Mooring Systems and Analyses course

ABL’s Introduction to Mooring Systems and Analyses course offers a comprehensive overview of offshore mooring systems, tailored to the specific needs of your sector. Participants will explore various types of mooring configurations, including catenary, turret, TLP, and spread mooring systems, alongside their components, applications, and compliance considerations.

Through a structured programme, attendees will gain practical knowledge of mooring analysis standards, software tools, and methodologies. Key topics include frequency and time domain analysis, modelling techniques, and interpreting analysis outputs. The course also highlights best practices, failure modes, and optimisation opportunities, equipping professionals with the skills to enhance mooring system performance and ensure regulatory compliance.

Learning outcomes:

  • The importance of properly assessed and compliant mooring system components, types of typical mooring arrangements, and industry best practices.
  • Relevant codes and standards applicable to offshore mooring analyses and their key differences, criteria and basis.
  • Key inputs into and processes involved in the generation of analysis input data such as; hydrodynamics, diffraction analyses, RAOs, QTFs and various other modelling coefficients.
  • Different types of mooring analysis methodology and their applications, frequency domain vs time domain, along with industry best practices.
  • Typical industry software used and their suitability to various mooring scenarios
  • Mooring deployment and analysis techniques and methodologies.
  • Common challenges, pitfalls, solutions and approaches at every stage.

Who should attend?

This course is designed for those who:

  • Want to gain an introductory understanding of offshore mooring systems and analyses
  • Are responsible for the development, assessment and approval of a project’s mooring systems
  • Want better to interpret mooring report and deliverable to improve the decision-making process.

You will need prior knowledge of:

  • Offshore mooring systems & knowledge documents
  • Typical vessel types
  • Common mooring components and their purpose along with offshore mooring related operations
  • It would be beneficial to have read the above, prior to attending the course.
